DJI announce third generation Osmo Mobile

DJI have announced the Osmo Mobile 3, the third generation of the portable, and now foldable, mobile phone stabiliser.

Described as the most travel-friendly Osmo Mobile to date, Osmo Mobile 3 features a folding design and locking mechanisms, and offers 15 hours of battery life. 

Users can control the gimbal’s movement with one hand, and a new quick roll feature rotates the orientation from portrait to landscape by pressing the Mode (M) button twice without the need to remove the mobile device.

The redesigned form means that the design doesn't obstruct the charging and audio ports, allowing for connection to charge the device or use external mics. A trigger helps manoeuvre the gimbal by locking orientation, rotating the gimbal for selfies, and re-centering when tracking a subject.

By using ActiveTrack, users can tap the trigger once, and Osmo Mobile 3 will begin tracking while keeping the subject centered within the frame.

Using the DJI Mimo app, users can take advantage of a number of features including story Mode, an editing suite, Gesture Control to allow selfies with hand gestures, Sport Mode to increase response speed of the device, ActiveTrack 3.0: to recognize and follow subjects, and timelapse, motionlapse and hyperlapse, panorama and slow motion modes.

Osmo Mobile 3 is available for purchase at store.dji.com and select Apple Stores in Australia starting next week. Osmo Mobile 3 is available in two packages starting at $159 AUD for the standard version which includes Osmo Mobile 3, a wrist strap, storage pouch and anti-slip pads or $189 AUD for the Osmo Mobile 3 combo which includes all the components of the standard version along with the Osmo Grip Tripod and the Osmo Carrying Case.
